Penélope Cruz put on a crazy performance on Monday as she attended the photocall for her upcoming film “Ferrari” in Madrid.
The Vicky Cristina Barcelona star, 49, opted for chic Chanel vibes in a houndstooth dress with a pink collar and cuffs and a matching baker boy hat.
She enhanced her height with a pair of sky-high black ankle-strap, open-toe heels while holding an envy-inducing black Chanel handbag.
The brunette beauty wore her hair in a sleek style tucked under a bob and paired the look with a pair of chunky gold hoop earrings from the fashion house.
In the Michael Mann film, which was released on Christmas Day, Penelope took on the role of Laura Ferrari – Enzo Ferrari's wife.

In the film, both she and Enzo struggled with the loss of their son Dino, and Cruz discussed the role and the character's different emotions – such as when her husband Enzo has an affair.
Her professional appearance came after she gave a rare insight into her relationship with Javier Bardem in an interview while covering the new issue of ELLE.
The actress and her husband, 54, who have been married for 13 years and have children Leo, 12, and Luna, 10, tend to keep their romance out of the spotlight.
However, during the interview, Penelope gave a little insight into their relationship and revealed how Javier entertains her family with his funny impressions.
She said, “He sings and he's a great dancer.” And he does this amazing Mick Jagger impression. He will imitate the way Al Pacino and De Niro talk to each other. It's incredible.'
When he asked when he gave vent to his impressions and whether they took place at the dinner table, she replied: “Really, in any situation.”
The mother-of-two also spoke to the fashion magazine about how she deals with the more “uncomfortable and painful” roles she takes on.
Penelope talked about how she regulates the empathy she feels for her characters and admitted she works on it a lot in therapy.

Penelope said there is a “back and forth dance between fiction and reality” that she believes “fits a certain stereotype,” but that doesn't make the statement any less true.
She said, “I'm lucky to have it, but maybe this makes me feel it even more.” I can feel it; It’s like hypersensitivity in every way – visually, tonally, to people’s feelings.”
“It's been one of the main topics I deal with in therapy: how to create balance so that I can continue to feel these things without making those feelings my own… Sometimes.” [the characters I play] can be uncomfortable and painful.
“It's hard to let them go, but in the end I always feel like they've made me a little more compassionate than I was two months ago.” And with the safety net, you know that's not your reality. It leads to less judgment and more compassion in every area of my life.”
In addition to protecting her own feelings, Penelope is also extremely protective and private of her two young children.
She said: “It's up to them to decide whether or not to take a job that is more exposed to the public. “They can talk about that when they're ready.”
